two.1.4) Short description
Ofgem is undertaking a general programme of improvement across its Corporate Services and is seeking to procure cost-effective, sustainable, scalable, and integrated technology solutions to support Finance, Purchase to Pay, Procurement and Contract Management, HR & Payroll, and the enterprise Project Management Office.
We have yet to decide on whether to use standalone systems with an effective integration approach or an enterprise resource planning type of approach and the purpose of this notice is to gather information on the type of solutions that would assist the Outline Business Case decision making process.
We therefore seek more clarity on the delivery approach options as the associated implementation and transformation needs to be at a pace that complements business initiatives, maximises the use of standard best practice processes and controls, and maximises business take up throughout the whole stakeholder community.
Ultimately it does not matter if you cover the scope of a single system or many, your response will assist the decision-making process to move to the next stage – a full procurement exercise to support the development of a Final Business Case.
